This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about the wage gap between men and women, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

It is already illegal to pay an employee less because of their sex, and there are requirements for some employers to report on their gender pay gap.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:

Make all UK companies pay a fine if their gender pay gaps are not closed by 2024: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/634277

If there's something else you would like the Government to do to tackle the pay gap you could start a new petition requesting this.
